District of Columbia
CorVel is a national provider of industry-leading workers’ compensation solutions to District of Columbia payors. Immediately following a workplace injury, employees can call to speak with a registered nurse who will evaluate the incident. Our nurses specialize in occupational injuries and connect injured workers with the quality care they need. After speaking with an Advocacy 24/7 nurse, employees are given the option to connect with a provider instantly via telehealth, facilitating expedited prescriptions and referrals for physical therapy treatment.
Our comprehensive return to work program ensures collaboration and communication with all interested parties including the injured worker, employer, human resources, medical and safety teams, and healthcare providers. We use technology, compassionate case management for employees and cost containment measures, to give District of Columbia employers a superior program.
